ARTIFACTS REFORGED AND TRANSFORMED
This mod revamps existing artifacts, aiming to achieve better balance. It also introduces a system where higher-tier detectors are necessary to locate rarer artifacts.
So if you want to become a true artifact hunter and a legend of the zone, you need to gear up accordingly.
Todo: Optional mod that makes changes to anomalies, so they are more deadly and not easy to traverse compared to current system.
ARTIFACT LIST
Old -> New
DETECTORS
Green is what type of artifact the detector can register. If it is red, the detector is too low tier.
Todo: Add new detectors in tiers, ex Hilka in T4. For preference compatibility (I.E wants to use Hilka over Veles but still want to find all artifacts)
COMPATIBILITY
Alters the files:
ArtifactPrototypes.cfg
DetectorPrototypes.cfg
ArtifactSpawnerPrototypes.cfg
It is COMPATIBLE with any mod that alters EffectPrototypes.cfg since it is using Refurls and Refkeys. As long as no other mod alters the same structures, it is compatible.
